Your crowd just looks at how it isn't like EQ1. You're dinosaurs and dead weight.

Oy, easy cowboy. I would never play EQ1 again because time has moved on. Then again I would never play that Disney garbage that SOE is peddling to us. Parkouring shadowknight/paladins/rangers/necromancers and whatnot with 40 classes and twitch based combat. With every reveal I lost some of my interest until it dropped to zero. I still hope to play a new Everquest game though that honors it's legacy.

Originally posted by cheyaneSOE knew this and they did it. They are going to kill Everquest and everything that we loved .Every time we talk about how we loved the old games we talked about Everquest and our memories of that game. That will be all we will be left with when this is over.... memories.

Tbh I like those memories from EQ and EQ2 hundred times more than EQN which had nothing to do with EQ imo. They only used the name of Everquest to market that Disney adaption and hype it up.

They should have just left the word Everquest out of this game. When EQN was revealed all I could think was they were pissing on that franchise and good memories I have from both EQ and EQ2. And that godawful EQN combat video...

Originally posted by VonatarSoul gems in the Crown Store? If they are filled soul gems then that's on the edge. You can recharge enchantments on items with filled soul gems, which has an effect on stats (to a degree).

I constantly vendor soul gems to free up inventory. They drop so often that it's hardly on the edge. Filling them is extremely easy as well.

If they don't adjust drop rates, then your point in valid. We have seen SOE and Trion adjust drop rates in EQ2 and AA respectively to boost microtransactions, so we'll have to see.

I can agree with that. Adjusting drop rates can ruin this game very fast. So far the cash shop is very tame though.

Upgrade to imperial edition, a guar and a pet and there's nothing else I want actually. Alchemy is so easy to level that buying pots is a complete waste imo.

Edit: repair kits may be useful in a hard dungeon with an imbalanced group where people die a lot. Making money is easy in ESO and repairing gear doesn't cost much. Hope they won't start herding player to CS with making drops smaller and such.

I believe that I would have been really hyped on EQN version they scrapped before coming out with current Disney adaption. Also, there's too little information and I don't consider dev talk to be information.

Personally I consider SWTOR leveling to be one of the most tedious I've ever experienced. Running from quest hub to quest hub in a very static world is OK with 1st character but after that it becomes really tiresome. Dark side main stories were really fun and well written though and I also quite liked flash points and raids.

My best leveling experience was in TSW and I really enjoyed it's quests and dark atmosphere.

Actually until VR exp boost is an overkill because I was always out leveling quests to grey levels 1-50. 10% to gold isn't any problem either because it's easy to get enough gold in ESO and after buying 42k horse there's little to spend it on other than bank space or alts because you can craft good gear yourself. So this is definitely not P2W.

Well I believe level has increased to Vr14 now.. but when I quit it was Vr12...

6-7 days for 1 to Vr12 is the main reason I quit.

Another 4-7 days for full suit of player crafted armor... under 2 weeks you have a top of the line character with the only improvements being more skill points or the (I wouldn't call it raid) slightly larger than group PvE sets.

Then I suppose you can do what all the games now seem to do for lack of PvE Progression... PvP.

That and the terrible balance of builds (meaning there was a specific weapon build that beat the rest ... by a lot).

And i really doubt they are going to patch in more engaging end game all of a sudden after B2P switch. A lot of players quit when they hit lvl cap and yes not everyone is into PVP. For ESO 1 to 50 lvl content isn't the problem it is the end game and lack of grouping tool which really discourages people. Spamming LFG is not my thing really.

Originally posted by NanfoodleYou let people play for free and its not good enough so they bitch. Make it a sub game and same outcome. ZM model is more then fair and game companies need to make money or we would have no games. Strip it down any way you like it, there has to be a reason we want to give them money. They have given us options on how we do that, how can they be any more fair? Give everything away so they have to close their doors in 3 months? Get a grip people.

Agreed. There is always something to complain about. I think this B2P/P2P model is good enough as long as they remember that non subscribers are still game buyers and keep the cash shop in check. The game is not free, cash shop should be decent. Im sure the game will do much better now.

Completely agree with both of you. Personaly I would have liked P2P model much more but B2P isn't bad either IF cash shop remains civilized. I'll stay subbed because monthly sub costs just as much as few pints in a pub.
